Zabbuli 24

1 Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ensi ya Mukama n’ebigirimu byonna, n’ensi zonna n’abo abazibeeramu.

A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof, the world and all who dwell therein.

2 Kubanga yasimba emisingi gyayo mu nnyanja, n’agizimba ku mazzi amangi.

For He has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.

3 Alyambuka ku lusozi lwa Mukama ye afaanana atya? Era wa ngeri ki aliyingira n’ayimirira mu nnyumba ye entukuvu?

Who may ascend the hill of the LORD? Who may stand in His holy place?

4 Oyo alina omutima omulongoofu, nga n’emikono gye mirongoofu; atasinza bakatonda abalala, era atalayirira bwereere.

He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol or swear deceitfully.

5 Oyo Mukama anaamuwanga omukisa, n’obutuukirivu okuva eri Katonda ow’obulokozi bwe.

He will receive blessing from the LORD and vindication from the God of his salvation.

6 Ogwo gwe mulembe gw’abo abakunoonya, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo.

Such is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face, O God of Jacob.

7 Mweggulewo, mmwe bawankaaki! Muggulwewo, mmwe enzigi ez’edda, Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ayingire.

Lift up your heads, O gates! Be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may enter!

8 Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ye ani? Ye Mukama ow’amaanyi era ow’obuyinza, omuwanguzi mu ntalo.

Who is this King of Glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

9 Mweggulewo, mmwe bawankaaki, muggulwewo mmwe enzigi ez’edda! Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ayingire.

Lift up your heads, O gates! Be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the King of Glory may enter!

10 Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa oyo ye ani? Mukama Ayinzabyonna; oyo ye Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa.

Who is He, this King of Glory? The LORD of Hosts— He is the King of Glory.
